STREAM 22


Recorded live to stereo, May 8, 2005
Sonic Protest Festival, Paris France.

The last show of the European tour. A long road running up from pilot home at ZDB Lisbon through Porto to Vigo to Bilbao, cutting across to Barcelona, then a mad dash through the Alps to Paris. A slice of hoof if you're lucky. Twenty minutes sleep in a hallway or hushed in a hostel. We lived in gay bars. But he took it too far. The last show with Calder and Caitlin.

STREAM 21

STREAM 21

Recorded live to stereo April 1st, 2005, at the Eyedrum Festival, Atlanta, GA.

Act None / Jrone / Open Airlock / Running Around / The Last Dance / Be Nice

Big underground shindig thrown by the dudes in Deerhunter. In fact, Deerhunter main-man Brandon fan-tackled JFR before the set ... and hasn't been seen in the same room since. JFR would burn a few additional bridges (later rebuilt) by telling a long-time school pal that they "were only friends for fifteen minutes." Oddly about the same amount of time the band would let go by in its set before letting the rhythms drop. Magik Markers, Mirror Dogs and The No-Neck Blues Band were all present. Last US show with C&C line-up.
